ABSTRACT:
A system, method and apparatus for detecting a fluid leak in a fluid based cooling system and purging the fluid therein under various conditions. The system, method and apparatus detect fluid levels in the cooling system, fluid pressure in the cooling system and fluid spraying and dripping from the cooling system. Upon an affirmative determination of low fluid levels, low fluid pressure or fluid spraying and dripping from one or more locations in the cooling system, the device automatically purges the fluid from the cooling system. Accordingly, in an overhead fluid-based cooling system, any damage to objects below from having fluid leaked thereon is minimized.
